Abstract

This research investigates the challenges faced by college students in acquiring English language literacy and explores promising practices to enhance their learning experience at the Cebu Technological University-Pinamungajan Campus during the academic year 2023-2024. We employed a qualitative approach, involving 110 Bachelor of Industrial Technology (BIT) students and gathering insights through surveys and interviews. The study identifies key challenges such as vocabulary deficiencies, grammar issues, and psychological barriers like anxiety. Promising practices highlighted include personalized instructional strategies, the integration of digital tools, and active student engagement. Findings underscore the importance of comprehensive curriculum design, equitable access to resources, and ongoing professional development for educators in fostering effective English literacy instruction.
